In his victory speech, Brown vowed to continue to bring progress to Buffalo. And, if he is re-elected, he says voters can hold him to that.

"If I win another term, you can count on me to continue to be focused on economic development and creating a climate where businesses can grow, where businesses will be attracted to create jobs for the residents of this community. We're certainly going to work on the issue of public education, to increase academic achievement, graduation rates in the Buffalo Public Schools," said Brown.
